I am doing a project on the mid phalangeal hair in humans.

I need to collect a load of data on the prescence of this hair.

 

If you have the spare time, could you please contribute! It will only take about 30seconds...

 

What you need to do is look at your hands, and see if you have a prescence of hair in the middle part of your fingers (not including thumbs)

I Have shown a picture on where to look.

 

 

If you have a prescence of hair here, Even ONE hair- Means that you have the allele.

 

Please include your first name, age and whether the hair is absent or present.

 

Thankyou

question? do white hairs (non-pubic) count?

 

If the don't, then it's "Zachary, 17, absent"

jordan, 17, present

 

why is first name required for this?

Steven, 12, present

K, 24, present on 3 fingers, missing on index

haha ecoli. Any hair counts! I am just wondering how a pubic hair would come to be on ones hands...

jordan' date=' 17, present

 

why is first name required for this?[/quote']

 

So i can find out where every person on here lives, and stalk them.

Ok ok, It's just a part of the data that I have to enter for my assignment....

 

If you can add whether you are male or female, that would also help. (for those ambiguously nicknamed types)

Zach, 16, absent

I got one!

 

Dan, 15, present

Ben, 24 present on 3, but not index finger.

YT, 37, none.

Hans, 20, absent.

 

 

 

 

(names may have been changed to protect the innocent)

Scott, 17, Yes on one finger

Sandi, 55, none

(for those ambiguously nicknamed types)

How do you know I'm not really sensitive about that?

 

I'm male.

Ryan, 20, none

haha ecoli. Any hair counts! I am just wondering how a pubic hair would come to be on ones hands...

Ecoli, now that your hands and face are beet-red, is it easier to see those little white hairs?

How do you know I'm not really sensitive about that?

If you had any sensitivity at all, I guess you wouldn't be a guy. j/k

 

 

 

Phi, 47, present on ring and pinky fingers.

If you had any sensitivity at all, I guess you wouldn't be a guy.

I must say, excellent answer phi.

Richard,31 and 11/12ths. Hairs present.

Joel and no hair on my fingers. However if I didn't use my hands for walking so much, I am sure some would grow there.

 

Edited:

 

By the way, I am 68 years old.

Nathaniel

25yrs

Yes on 6 of the 8 fingers.

kyle, 18, present on three but not index finger.

I just meant the black hairs as pubic...becasue generally, you don't get thick black hairs like that on your body (except for your head o'course) until puberty.

*smiles* ok
